The musical concert furni shed the
public last Thursday at the opera
house was well calculated to please
a cultivated audience, and the ladies
Of the Christian church, through
whose efforts the entertainment was
carried to q successful ending, have
cause to be gratified at its pleasant
features to those assembled, and for
a gOOdly sum remaining to the
church. Upwards Of two hundred
ladies and gentlemen from our most
appreciative circles were present
and gave the entertainment their
closest attention. The program was
fully carried out except that Mr.. Joe
PeDdletOn failed to appear to pre-
sent his trombone solo by being
called away, but Miss Belle Daily
having been recalled in q vocal solo,
and Joseph Phillip recalled to per-
form 3 violin solo, those who
paid their money were thus
favored with one extra performance.
Miss Daily by her singing showed
her voice had undergone quite a
through training while east lately
She has a good voice and success
may be predicted for her as a singer.
She gave two solos and appeared
in a quartette, and with Harry
Nickles in a duet. Harry himself
is known for deep bass voice, and
when he appears before a Salina
audience, his singing is certain to
catch the plaudits Of those hearing
him. Miss Jessie Beedy's recitation,
"0n the other train" was given
without q break, and she was
master Of this mRsterful piece.
The instrumental duet by Prof.
Yungfleisch and Miss Tina Flanders,
"Ill TrOvatOre,n was grand. These
two are among Salinas most expert
piano performers. Miss Flanders
likewise rendered an instrumental
solo. One quartette moonlight
will come again." was beautifully
rendered sung by Misses Daily and
Goodwin and Messrs. Barclay and
Goodwin, and y second quartette by
Messrs. Bond, Aldrieh, Wilson and
Shute. AS piano performers Mrs.
Jennie Hall and Miss Mile Powers
again exhibited their skill to the
Salina people.
